A Christmas Gift Box for The Crafter’s Cafe

 Hey there and welcome. I hope your week got off to a great start. In this post, I’d like to share my DT make for The Crafter’s Cafe. Our theme is Anything Goes with the optional twist of including an animal. And we have Beccy’s Place as our generous sponsor, so I hope you’ll find some time to join us in the fun.

For this challenge, I made a Christmas treat/gift box. The image I played with is from a set called Christmas Cardinals, and it’s just adorable! After printing, I first stenciled the background and set it aside to dry for a while. In the meantime, I scored and folded the box. I love to make those kinds of little boxes because I think they make small presents extra special. Next, I colored the image using markers. Before assembling the box, I adhered my colored panel, DP, and added a faux-stitching line as well.

 



I hope you like how it turned out, and I really look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge!


Hugs,

Jinny

I love cute little boxes too Jinny, and regularly make them for my kids and nieces and nephews. I agree that they make small gifts and gift cards extra special.
I love the stitched frame you added around the image, and I must compliment you on how neat and consistent your pen work is... it looks terrific! Love the stencilled background too. Wonderful work.
Cheers,
Beccy
